This legislation proposes an amendment to the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968, specifically targeting the Byrne Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) program. The primary goal is to broaden the scope of how these federal grants can be utilized by state and local law enforcement agencies. It introduces a new permissible use for Byrne JAG funds, allowing them to support programs designed to combat human trafficking . This expansion explicitly includes funding for initiatives that focus on reducing the demand for trafficked persons , thereby empowering law enforcement to address a critical aspect of human trafficking.
